For the record
By Dave Winer on Wednesday, June 29, 2011 at 1:38 PM.

Computerworld quoted my latest piece in their roundup of opinion about Google Plus. Many others did as well.  #

Quotes are welcome as long as they accurately reflect what was said. #

For the record, I don't think the words they attribute to me are close enough to what I said to be thought of as a quote.  #

I had an off the record phone conversation with their editor, so I can't tell you what she said. But I can say it wasn't satisfying. #

Maybe this will make an interesting case study for our J-school students. How many elipses can you use, and when, and still claim to have a quote? #
